Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 11, June 11, 2024
Section 20.2.14.200 - Emission Limitations - Equipment Less Than or Equal to 250 MBTU/HOUR HEAT CAPACITY
A. The owner or operator of coal burning equipment having a rated heat capacity less than or equal to 250 million British Thermal Units per hour (higher heating value) shall not permit, cause, suffer or allow particulate matter emissions to the atmosphere to exceed the limits set forth in the following table:

B. For values of heat input not specified in the table, maximum allowable emissions shall be calculated by the following formula:
(1) E = Allowable Particulate Emissions (lbs./million BTU);
(2) I = Total Heat Input (in units of million BTU's /hr., higher heating value);
(3) When I equals 1 to 250, E equals 0.996135 times I raised to the power -0.23471.
